Abstract
A motor driving device for driving a motor having multiple windings corresponding to multiple phases, respectively, may include: a first inverter including multiple first switching elements and connected to a first end of each of the multiple windings; a second inverter including multiple second switching elements and connected a second end of each of the multiple windings; a third switching element configured to connect/disconnect points, at which the number of turns of each of the multiple windings is partitioned based on a predetermined ratio, to/from each other; and a controller configured to control, based on the required output of the motor, an on/off state of the first switching elements to the third switching element.
